Complete guideFull MedicMess editorial briefing

This one-day, in-person meeting is aimed at clinical neurophysiology professionals, including clinical scientists, STP trainees and colleagues developing services or advanced-practice roles. The programme runs from registration at 09:00 to closing remarks at 16:30, with sessions on EEG, neurophysiology in intensive care, community diagnostic hubs and links between carpal tunnel findings and cardiomyopathy.

The afternoon turns towards research: Prof Elaine Cloutman-Green discusses how to unlock research capability in a department, followed by Will McDevitt on getting research published. The organiser's public pages, programme PDF and registration listing did not show an abstract call, submission portal or abstract specifications when checked on 27 August 2026, so no submission deadline, formats or word limits should be assumed.

Eventbrite shows a public ticket range of GBP 0-75 without exposing which attendee categories map to those prices, and states that tickets are non-refundable. Its structured event data schedules registration to close at 14:00 UTC on 18 September 2026; dietary requirements are requested by email to ansadmin@ahcs.ac.uk.
